I'm back!

Lets see how this goes this time!

Here is a little introduction about me:  I teach middle school social studies, I have been married for over 5 years, I have two beautiful dog children, and I work out...a lot.  I also like to have fun!

I am a marathon runner with a race in about 3 weeks (which I have not been training hard for).  I have completed 7 marathons now, 3 ultra-marathons and many other races.  In fact this weekend I will be running two half marathons. 

I am involved in my sorority and glad I am.

I love teaching.  I do get frustrated sometimes but it is a rewarding job. 

I might be addicted to subscription boxes which I will review here.

I read a lot and watch a lot of movies.

I like to find the good in things even when it is hard.

I love to travel!!  Last summer I traveled to Nicaragua to learn how to surf.  I fell in love!  I keep meaning to buy a surfboard but haven't yet.

I hate to clean but need to.  I also really need to fold laundry.  I found another blog with home organizing tips which I am trying to do but I feel like I am never home. 

My family and friends mean to world to me.  I try to see friends st least once a week.  Family is harder because I am in Texas and they are not.  My parents and one sister did come visit me this past week and we had a blast. 

So we will see if I can keep this up with hopefully more riveting information. 

Movie Review:
The Monuments Men- Loved it!  First of all, I love history, hence my job.  Second, I love John Goodman.  So I knew I needed to see this movie.  Saw it with my parents, one sister and my husband and everyone liked it.  Even my mom who does not like movies.  Story captivated me and led to some good conversations if saving art was worth the lives that were lost and risked.  Highly recommend this movie!
